    Since I often tie rings with two, or sometimes three, different
    alloys of gold, or different precious metals, I don't stamp them
    with everything that's there, even if I had room somewhere to put the
    stamp. I take a good clear photograph of the ring, describe it in
    detail, including the metals used, and include it with the shipment
    to the buyer. 

    If someone has their ring and the unique identifying document that I
    send (signed and dated by me), then they shouldn't have much trouble
    proving to a third party what it is, or at least passing the problem
    along to me.  I hope that it would satisfy any legal questions, but
    I'm more interested in satisfying my customers -- haven't heard any
    complaints, so far.
